Diopside History
Diopside gemstones have been around a long time, but were only officially discovered in 1988. Originally, diopside was sourced from Russia's Eastern Siberia, but deposits have been found elsewhere in the world. Afghanistan is now considered a significant supplier for gem-quality chromium diopside. Other locations of diopside rough include Australia, Russia, Canada, Madagascar, Brazil and South Africa. Diopside has been growing in popularity for jewelry due to its affordability and striking resemblance to more expensive gems such as emerald and tsavorite garnet.
The term diopside comes from the Greek words "di" and "opsis," which mean "two" and "vision." It's no surprise then that this stone was viewed as one of visualization and was sometimes placed on the forehead to help encourage good dreams by ancient peoples. Other cultures believed green diopside had come from the tree of life. Many people buried their dead with the gemstone to ensure renewal of their life.

Diopside Metaphysical Properties
Diopside has long been used to boost creative vision and awareness. This green gemstone is also thought to be able to improve intellect and encourages the desire of one to learn.
